Great Western, Bewdleyback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Friendly helpful barman; now got a decent smoking area across the car park. I had pints of Holden's Golden Glow [decent pint] & Bewdley Brewery 'Jubilee Ale' which is actually a mix of Worcestershire Way & 2857 served from the two handpumps.

The Great Western is situated next to a viaduct which carries the Severn Valley Railway above the main road. It's a large place with a decent selection of real ales and a couple of Weston's ciders. Ales were Morland Old Golden Hen, Bewdley 2857, Worcestershire Way & Severn Valley Aleway & Three Tuns XXX. Old Rosie & Rosie's Pig were the ciders. No food is served. But one of the bar staff was serving the locals with various complimentary delicacies to try, which seemed to be meeting with their approval. From here we went back across the river to the new Real Ale Tavern, a Black Country Ales establishment. That was probably the best pub in Bewdley for its variety of ales and ciders. I will request it to be added.

Smart pub, with inviting advertising lettered on the outside offering a choice of refreshments - with "Revivers" being the most interesting.
Mezzanine floor makes it a split level pub - upstairs has a couple of comfy sofas and a fine picture of Bewdley, in case you forget where you are.
Beer wise - a touch disappointing on my visit. A couple of speckled hens and assorted Greene Kings and a Worcestershire Way from Bewdley Brewery - which was selected. A lively number that took a long time to settle down so that you could see through it.

Smallish corner house pub which has an upper gallery type area to increase capacity. Was busy (standing room only) on this visit.
I also had the 2857 local brew which went down well. Probably the closest pub to the railway - is a bit of a climb up to the station though.

Good pub, I had pints of Belhaven Old Gold, which was very nice, & Bewdley Brwewry 2857 which was smooth & refreshing.
